DEFINE PLEASURE  Proverbs 21:12-21 Devotional:- “He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.” (v. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DEFINE PLEASURE Support Us Proverbs 21:12-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is nothing wrong with pleasure, but there is a need to define what it means in a way that it will not bring destruction to you. Pleasure to most people means idleness, sleeping, jesting, watching T.V and all sorts of films, extravagant spending at beer parlous and hotels, eating in all the city kitchens and to some it is just travelling all around. The truth is that none of those things are real pleasure. If those things are what you call pleasures, then, no matter how much you have now, poverty and sorrow are on the way. Real pleasure is not that which man creat...

FIGHTING BY FAITH

I Timothy 6:11-16
Devotional:- “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses” (V.12) NKJV

    So many people do not understand that we are here for the battle that is already won. As challenging as life could be, Christ has won the battle for us (John 16:33). Our enemy, the devil has been defeated on the cross of Calvary (Colossians 2:15). The victory of Jesus on the cross is our inheritance. We have been giving authority over all the powers of the enemy (Luke 10:19). Our authority only works when we fight by faith (1 John 5:4). You don’t need to run from your challenges. They are there to prove your ability in God for victory.

Faith is our weapon for victory. Faith is fighting with the mysteries of God. Battles of life cannot be fought with human power, or wisdom but your understanding of the mysteries of God’s word.

In the scripture we read today, God’s word says, we should fight the good fight of faith. This is fighting with the great power we have in God for our victory. They are the name of Jesus, the blood of Jesus, and the word of God. The depth of your understanding determines the strength of those weapons in your hand.

Friend, these weapons of our warfare are mighty through God. No mountain can stand before them. They are capable of destroying all weapons of darkness. Stop looking at your situation helplessly. You are not created for failure. You are saved to overcome. You are destined to win. Arise in the name of Jesus and conquer!

Prayer: Lord, give me the understanding of the mysteries of your working power

“YOUR DEPTH OF UNDERSTANDING DETERMINES YOUR LEVEL OF MANIFESTATION”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
